Answer 1

Have you done apt-get update before this?

And then

 apt-get -y install python-pip 

Answer 2

This is my docker file. Would you try:

 FROM ubuntu:14.04 MAINTAINER Storozhenko Roman < [e-mail] > ENV REFRESHED_AT 2015-03-16 RUN apt-get -yqq update RUN apt-get install -yqq python RUN apt-get -yqq install python-pip 

Answer 3

You are using the wrong package. You can install pip in Ubuntu 14.04 using

apt-get install python-pip

If you are looking for something you can use

aptitude search pip

or website http://packages.ubuntu.com

Answer 4

Looks like a problem with Ubuntu version 14.04. I switched to 13.1 and then apt-get install python3-pip solved the problem. However, it does not install pip, you get pip3. Thank you all for your help.

Answer 5

python-pip for Trusty (Ubuntu 14.04) is in the Universe packages.

So, I had to do the following (as root):

 apt-get install -y software-properties-common add-apt-repository universe apt-get install -y python-pip 

Answer 6

You can install pip on Ubuntu 15.10-x86_64 with

 apt-get update apt-get install python-pip
